Search Strategy[edit | edit source]
A search was done on PUBmed, web of knowledge, article database, the library, google books and google scholar to find some interesting evidence based articles about this subject. Different terms were used, such as ‘slocum test knee’, ‘anterolateral rotatory instability knee’ and ‘ALRI test’. 14 Results were found on PUBmed but no full texts were available. On web of knowledge, only 3 results were found but none of them contained interesting information and article database showed no results. Only two articles of ‘The Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery’ were found on google scholar, where they described the technique of the Slocum’s test. Unfortunately no articles were found concerning the reliability of instability tests of the knee. Interesting information was also found in several books in google books and the library. Later a search was done in google for ‘Slocum’s test’ to read some extra information about it and then a search on youtube for some videos of the technique.
